Ten long years,
Since i knew where i wasn't.
Since the plan was foiled.
Since instance swallowed me.

I don't know where i am.
I live and fight every day,
to get back to, i dont know where.
Its not here.

Solitude at sea. I love the peace.
But the silence makes ears bleed.
Strife is sacred. Effort, it's brother.

I want for you all
Joy and happiness
I wanna see you
Swim in all the
Creative power
Of your heart's
Longing
I'm saddened to
See you struggle
So hard for the
Dreams of
Your peace
Your talents have
Been thwarted in
Life's raging sea
You cannot take a
Breath lest some
Harsh voice slaps
You down
Your back is
Against the wall
The light within
You is as a dying
Ember
But the master Of
Lights has heard
Your cry
And surely as the
Rising sun
I will see the smile
Within you like
An eagle that
Flys to the
Stars

Cafe

I sat here waiting for you..breathlessly anticipating the moment that u found me, and I found you. I would know you would know because we've met before, not here not now but in another life...u look at me and I smiled I felt butterflies as u laughingly flirted with me I flirted back, n then I knew it was you, my senses cleared the world was right again papa was home...

How much evil can a building bear
Faces locked behind its walls
Silent screams lost consumed by its halls
The crosses and statues of God so divine
Form a line so hypocritical
As they stood over these heinous crimes

How long, how much time
How many people must we watch die
How many tears of anger and fear’s
How many tears Must fall
Before the government listens to the people’s call.

Is our government hoping that our tears will wash the pain away?
Do they believe they will get away with the games they play?
These building stand tall Irelands death camps
The abuse, the suffering,
The ones that could no longer live and were sentenced to die
The memories of these people that government now tramp

We listen how they talk about change
How they will investigate the mass unmarked graves
Men, Women, Children all lay unnamed
I am sure some of these people prayed with their last breath
This was vein as they could only find death

These building now stand
With for sale signs up
It just goes to show how our country is corrupt
Now our government promised to give such a building back
To talk to the survivors
Build a museum a place to display the horrific facts

Now the for-sale sign is flying high
The people are asking themselves why
Let down by a system that allowed these crimes
Now let down again

When will it stop the pain and despair
I believe it will never stop unless the government play
Give back the properties, pay your respects
Get down on one knee and beg for forgiveness
Acknowledge what happened and release the facts
Pursue the people that committed the crimes
Stop trying to hide what happened
And stop the lies.
Let’s try to remember it was our people that died.

Give it back to the people like you said you would.
Let us grieve and let us believe all of this cover up is in the past.

The Deep but Dazzling darkness
Dwelling in my hearts set free,
My good mind’s eye was closed
I lived in Mystery.

Now in my little World
You are the sun with shining rays,
You bring hope and Promise
Upon my darkest days.

In the spinning of the Universe
Everything’s a part
There will be a plan for us
ON this I rest my heart

What part we are to play
I’m really not so sure
But we are together now
Our souls are White and Pure.

Now against the shadows
Of the oppressive mind I fight
Because surrounding us
There is a Ring of Endless Light.

Wish you could know, it's profound to see.
The secrets, the pain, that's all you can read?

In the darkest of night, what do you perceive?
The remnants of a man, destroyed for the thrill?
The scars of a father unable to heal?

You look in my eyes and I know not what you see.
Perhaps just a riddle? A pupil? Not me.

The pain of a broken heart is one of the most excruciating
Knowing a relationship is going wrong and slowly dissipating
Next a break up out of the blue
You never thought that it would ever happen to you
It takes a long time to heal and to feel whole again
Not a time to be going out with other men
This is a time to reflect on what really went wrong
To heal and once again and to become strong
Was the relationship mutual or perhaps not?
What was it that made the relationship rot?
Perhaps it all began with lust, there was no love lost
And slowly but surely the more emotional one got tossed
Respect and friendship were not part of that sordid equation
Love is built on a rock, it is a solid foundation
Falling in love builds up as a couple date
Getting to know each other well, the two love birds have patience and wait
When the timing is right, true love is finally revealed
With meaningful vows, love is sealed.

Tiger Woods is arguably one of the greats of all-time but not the best
deemed super human led to preferential treatment unfair to the rest
It affected others to hear Media say 'they're playing for second place'
when someone bested Tiger I bet they yearned to shout "In your Face"

Tiger this! and Tiger that!... inevitably became painful to my ears
constant praise was beneficial to Tiger while insulting to all his peers
Fact is Tiger was conducive to excitement in golf reaching contagious
that said..making the other golfers seem insignificant was outrageous

On numerous occasions I witnessed him more fortuitous than good
even when out of contention the focus rarely shifted from Tiger Wood
When less than his perfect self the excuses always came pouring in
it was seemingly unacceptable if almighty Tiger fell short of the win

Fact #2! NO sports figure is worth near the ridiculous money they make
real folks work lifetimes earning less than many do in one games take
Media created a "Holier than thou" Tiger which produced carelessness
arrogance turned his history making career into a nightmarish mess

Athletes guilty of beating on woman should be banned from the sport they play
cheating is also a reprehensible act Mr.Tiger Woods learned the hard way
Fans can be too much but the athlete must appease so they master the facade
I don't hate the Tiger..I do hate when ANYONE is worshiped like some god

Where are you hiding, my darling?
Are you missing me, your other half?
Let's come as one to fill our hearts
To show each other that love is true.

Full of me? I've not yet been through
Waiting for the crew to sail on the ship
Keep exploring until we finish
Inspire next generation with endless stories

My biggest dream, oh you know it's family
With cozy nights with frequent smiles on face
As the home nothing can replace
Will you be my roommate for life? ??

If ask 'What do women want'...not one could truly enlighten me
from all I've ascertained they don't even know... so how could we
Some feel a reasonable response to what they want is "Everything"
it's good guys women always manipulative like puppets on string

I know with absolution being too nice inevitably gets you burned
having been there more than I care to remember is how I learned
How women turn from sane into succubus in a blink is inexplicable
never believe you can figure them out because they're inextricable

The majority prefer looks which reflects the mentality of a shallow mind
women don't realize a true old-fashioned gentlemen are the best find
The outside may be attractive but what truly matters is the interior
the self-absorbed pretty boys are more apt to make woman feel inferior

They pick 'BAD BOYS' likely to be physically or worse mentally abusive
most victims want to flee... while fear turns many others reclusive
Domestic violence lessens if better acquainted before making a choice
if a faint whisper warns 'He's not the one for you'.. heed the voice

WANT to be better to us who go above and beyond to treat you good
appreciate what you're lucky to have and SHOW us the love you should
What women want may be a question without a reasonable answer sadly
the definitive truth behind that mystery man wishes to know badly
